7月17日,2022田径世锦赛女子铅球决赛尘埃落定。 Vice President Kamala Harris has triggered backlash online after seeming to liken the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade - the landmark 1973 ruling that had legalized abortion nationwide for almost 50 years - to slavery.,“We have to recognize we're a nation that was founded on certain principles that are — that are grounded in the concept of freedom and liberty. We also know that we've had a history in this country of government trying to claim ownership over human bodies. And we had supposedly evolved from that time and that way of thinking. So this is very problematic on so many levels,” Harris said while addressing the crowd at the Essence Festival in New Orleans on Saturday.,Vice President #KamalaHarris speaking on the Supreme Court's Roe V. Wade decision at @Essence Fest.#RoeVWade #essencefestival pic.twitter.com/cfRyj1rywi— Shaquille Omari (@shaq_omari) July 3, 2022,The annual music festival was started in 1995, originally as a one-off event to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Essence, a magazine aimed primarily towards African-American women.,Although Harris did not explicitly reference slavery, she was believed to have been indicating to the United States' grim history of legally enslaving human beings, mainly Africans and African Americans.,“Millions of women in America will go to bed tonight without access to the healthcare and reproductive care that they had this morning… Without access to the same healthcare or reproductive healthcare that their mothers and grandmothers had for 50 years. Today's decision on that theory, then, calls into question other rights that we thought were settled,” the VP added.,VP Kamala Harris Did Not Believe Justices When They Said Roe Was Settled27 June, 23:31 GMT,Her remarks were made after the highest court in the country overturned the 1973 landmark ruling on 24 June that "protects a pregnant woman's liberty to choose to have an abortion without excessive government restriction.”,Users online immediately responded to the Vice President’s remarks, slamming Harris’s stance.,We are now living in the darkest times in America’s history because of the corruption within the treasonous Democrat Party.— Mick McKenzie (@Mick553) July 4, 2022,Hey, Kamala: Slavery happened because elites in power decided a group of people were less than human so they then had the right to own and kill Africans. Today we have a group of elites who see unborn babies as less than human, and you actively fight for the right to kill them.— Rick Yuzzi (@RickYuzzi) July 3, 2022,Who cares what she thinks. She is a disgrace to this nation.— Tony Mallett (@TonyMallett8) July 3, 2022,Did anyone ask her who owns the life of the unborn child?— Mouse That Roared (@MiceThatRoar16) July 3, 2022,Which is ironic because those who support abortion with no limitations claim ownership over the unborn human body as the reason to end its life.— Tamara_swindy (@tamaraswizzle) July 3, 2022,Yup. Because at 6 weeks embryos still have tails. This isn't about saving "babies" at this stage— V. Sears (@Sueshuz) July 3, 2022,Nothing denies a person's humanity like treating them as an inanimate incubator.— kathykattenburg (@kathykattenburg) July 4, 2022,Women Hoarding Birth Control, Abortion Pills After Roe v Wade Overturned, Media Says27 June, 18:18 GMT,Some internet users reminded Kamala Harris of her heritage, as she is the daughter of an Indian-American mother and a Jamaican-American father.,This incredibly entitled person does not want to reflect upon caste systems. She has an unflattering legacy she might have to explain.— SmithWinston1984 (@SmithWinston44) July 4, 2022,Weren't some of them claiming ownership on her father's side of the family?— Suzy Que (@SuzyQue27155082) July 3, 2022,This comes as mass demonstrations have swept the US following the ruling that now grants states the authority to ban or restrict abortions. So-called trigger laws - bans designed to take effect with the overturning of Roe v. Wade – have been rendered enforceable in some states following the US Supreme Court's ruling, while in others, the bans await official action.,Democrat-Aligned Groups Haul $80 Million in Donations in Week Following Roe v. Wade RepealYesterday, 19:30 GMT,Restrictive abortion laws are in effect in at least four states: Arkansas, Missouri, South Dakota and Wisconsin, according to CNN.,Still awaiting state action for the governor to certify the Supreme Court's decision are Wyoming, North Dakota, Idaho, Tennessee and Texas. In over a dozen states, legal fights are underway over abortion bans and limits on the procedure.,In the immediate aftermath of the ruling, Democrats vowed to pass a federal law enshrining the right for abortions should they sweep the midterm November elections.。

B | 第八次出征田径世锦赛的巩立姣,最终以0.1米的差距不敌美国选手伊利,以20米39获得一枚银牌。此战巩立姣没能完成她心心念念的世锦赛三连冠的目标。

C | 但相信喊出“谁还嫌冠军多呢”豪言的巩立姣,仍然会昂首重回赛场,拿回更多的冠军,并完成突破21米的极限任务。受到疫情影响,巩立姣在这个赛季没能出国参加世界大赛。不过在国内选拔赛期间,巩立姣多次投出20米开外的成绩,展示了不错的状态。

D | 来到田径世锦赛的舞台,巩立姣发挥稳定。在资格赛上,巩立姣第一轮投出18.74米,随后第二投以19.51米的全场最佳成绩轻松晋级。“我想把最佳状态调到明天。”预赛后的巩立姣霸气十足。

E | 决赛中,俄勒冈大学的体育场,尤金世锦赛主场,给予东道主美国格外的动力。美国选手查斯·伊利第一投就突破了20米大关,成绩达到20.49米,这给予其他选手极大的心理压力。第一投巩立姣投出19.59米,开始向领先者发起挑战,第二投她的成绩提升到19.84米,第三投20.23米,第四投20.08米,第五投20.39米。

F | 随着巩立姣的身体越来越热,她也一次次突破20米大关,一步步缩小着差距。可惜最后一投巩立姣的成绩为19.89米,最终没能超越伊利,以0.1米差距获得亚军。而20.39米也是巩立姣的赛季最好成绩。队友宋佳媛以19.57米获得第六名。八次参加世锦赛,多次站上过领奖台的巩立姣,给予外界的印象是“不拿冠军就是失败”。这当然不对。第七次站上田径世锦赛领奖台的巩立姣,她的成绩已足够辉煌:2次冠军、2次亚军、3次季军。这是谁也拿不走的光荣榜。相信巩立姣不会就此善罢甘休。毕竟除了赢得冠军,巩立姣还有更高的梦想。“我以前的梦想是在奥运会上赢得冠军,但我的终极梦想是成绩能够突破21米,我也希望下届奥运会之前,或者是巴黎奥运会上,能突破自己,达到自己的极限。”巩立姣说。文/本报记者 褚鹏 本版供图/新华社
